Cabinet Approves Removal of Visa Requirements for Citizens of the Dominican Republic
Cabinet, at its meeting on Tuesday, January 20, 2026, approved the removal of visa requirements for citizens of the Dominican Republic entering the Commonwealth of Dominica for visits of up to one hundred and eighty (180) days, with effect from February 1, 2026.
Cabinet further advised amending the Visa (Exemptions) Regulations to give legal effect to the removal of visa requirements for citizens of the Dominican Republic.
The approval follows an announcement by Prime Minister, Hon. Roosevelt Skerrit, during his New Year Conversation with journalists, that Government would review Dominica’s visa entry requirements as part of a broader strategy to support population growth, economic activity and regional cooperation, consistent with national security and immigration frameworks.
A decision on visa entry requirements for other countries will follow as the review process continues.
